COOLER WEEKEND

BUSY BUSY all day Friday framing more work, so spent saturday after a walk and coffee sitting and knitting, watching netflix. 

FRAMED - progression of a cover design for Jenny Angel, eventually unpublished

 AT the end of the day i looked at what i'd done, an attempt to knit fairisle pansies off my own pattern grid,  and it was terrible.  a whole afternoon of wasted time!!  so pulled it out and sat up till late redoing a different pattern. grrrrr    it's ok now :0)

Large sudsy lumps of foam were floating down the river on friday morning.  this is a strange natural occurrence, it happens a few times a year.  apparently it's caused by the effects of leaf decay and the movement of the water

I WENT TO THE FILM FESTIVAL in mildura this week, friday night 'Goldstone' with a ravaged but still very sexy Aaron Pederson in a stark outback setting.  moody and good.   

saturday morning, 7am.  the moon sets as a magpie carols.  :0)

Yesterday at the Film Festival was The Meddler with Susan Sarandon and Rose Byrne, a mother daughter film that struck a chord, then in the after The Wait with Juliette Binoche, about a mother grieving for a recently deceased son.  I was worn out by the end of the day, all that emotion.  All good films. 

The weather sounded pretty wild even from inside the theatre, and it was wet and stormy skies on the way home with a spectacular rainbow at Merbein.

    the road to wenty

I had a lovely time between films visiting the Pumpkin Patch and buying three dresses for little mara and an aussie outfit for cal complete with mirrored aviator glasses :0)
